Damage Assessments. A. Deliverables for Task #2: Individual tasks within Contractor’s scope of services will be assigned by GOSR to Contractor through written Task Orders. These Task Orders will identify deliverables on a project-by-project basis. Each such deliverable must include a concise rational documenting findings and supporting the proposed determinations. While specific deliverables will vary, key deliverables will likely include the following:
Damage Assessments. The damage assessment is a critical component to development of the PW and results in successful project funding with FEMA. The purpose of the damage assessment is to observe and quantify damage and confirm it as a result of the disaster. Xxxxxxx professionals work with jurisdictions to develop damage assessment plans and coordinate these plans with state and federal partners as quickly as possible following the disaster. This work includes supporting site visits and, as necessary, providing surveying, cost estimating, and engineering support to assess damage. To support the substantial damage estimation process, the Xxxxxxx Team will: » Coordinate with FEMA to schedule a kickoff meeting; » Collect data necessary to identify structures to be inspected based on assigned areas, including available inundation maps, aerial imagery with inundation areas, depth grids, high water marks, and Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) data; » Develop and approach for identifying structures and work with FEMA and the community to identify areas of interest and available data; » Assemble parcel data to support daily inspections for the field team; » Schedule and deploy field teams to begin inspections. Inspection teams will consist of two‐member teams. The number of teams will depend on the number of inspections required to be completed within a given time period and location. It is expected that each team will complete an average of at least 20 inspections per day. Inspection teams will be scheduled to work six days per week in the field and have one rotating day off, so that 12 teams are inspecting daily seven days per week. Data entry will be consistent with the Substantial Damage Estimate Field Workbook Grant Formulation Once Congress has appropriated millions or billions of dollars in disaster aid, it takes expertise, knowledge, tactical decision-making, and programmatic acumen to obtain all of the funding to which an applicant is entitled. Xxxxxxx understands these programs and their nuances surrounding cost estimating, project cost accounting, insurance, hazard mitigation, floodplain management, and EHP. We achieve success by developing robust applications, which minimize ineligibility determinations and limit common issues that arise in the administration of the PA program. Depending on the need of the County, our professionals will: » Develop SOWs. Xxxxxxx supports this by offering -a multi-disciplinary team that knows federal programs, such as the Xxxxxx X.
